Ah, well that's a bit different. North America to South Africa is
only 7000 miles. Another 12,000 or so might put you in Australia, but
it's hard to say. There are no recognised cruising routes from Cape
of Good Hope to Australia -- perhaps you could write a book on it?
I'd be more willing to try that in my Catalina 18 than a Mac.
Sheesh!
But the Catalina 18 is relatively worthless in Australia. (or anywhere
else I guess) You must have missed the original post where they said a
new Mac26M was selling for $75,000 in Australia. That's seems like an
opportunity for some young adverturers to make some serious cash and put
some spice in their life.
I bought it for a completely different reason -
to sail.
Not FOR Sale.
Sheesh!
